Book Contest: Win an Autographed Copy of The Naked Portfolio Manager!
What is the name of the famous Italian financier who once donated 122 square inches of his own skin to help a young woman who had been burned after a gas stove burst into flames? 72 square inches of skin was removed from his hips and thighs for the skin graft. A few weeks later he donated an additional 50 inches from his back.
So... who was this generous, well-known financier? (Hint: If you have my book, check out the picture on page 120.)
Again, the first person to comment and leave the correct answer will receive a free autographed copy of The Naked Portfolio Manger (and for those who already have a copy, you have the chance to win another with my John Hancock so you can give it to a friend!).

I'd look up the answer right now, but my mother was so interested in your theories, that I sent her my copy!!
Bob, interesting story! The famous financier is Charles Ponzi, apparently as crooked as he was generous. As you know, I've been giving copies to my clients as gifts. I'd love one more!
